1911 revolution

Time to dust some dusty kobwebs off this blog. I have been busy lately trying to come up with an essay on the 1911 Revolution of China when the Manchu monarchy was replaced by a republican government and how the revolutionary Chinese students in Japan played a part in influencing it. I can imagine how excited those overseas students were, far from home and family, plotting a revolution in their dim and cramped dormitories.
